Our identity and calling in Christ Jesus is a Divine honor from the Father, graciously given to all who are faithfully committed to advancing God's Kingdom by living Christ-like and bearing fruits that remain, for His glory. This is attained in humility, as we give up every form of pride, which is contrary to the true nature of all who are Heirs of the Father (Isaiah 53).
Although, hypocrites and self-proclaimed righteous Ministers may seek praise and receive honor from men to boost their popularity and egotistical nature, as true Christians and faithful Children of God, we need to always seek God's Divine honor by doing everything we need to do, to the LORD and not just to please people, so that the Righteousness of God in Christ Jesus, who lives in us and whom we serve, may reveal our identity as those who are Circumcised in the Spirit, whose honor is not from this world, but Divinely and graciously given as an inheritance by the LORD, our Heavenly Father (John 12:43, Romans 2:28-29, Col. 3:23-24).
PRAYER: Thank You, LORD, Jesus Christ, for I'm highly favored to be of service in Your Vineyard, seeking Your Divine honor and not the praises of mankind, which come in appreciation for Your awesome works in my life. Please keep me focused and determined to live continuously for Your Glory, remaining deserving of Your Kingdom for eternity so You can display the infinite riches of Your Grace;
Amen.
From John 5:44
